This month took place the Summer edition of the IQCC Forum, a quarterly meeting-place where high-quality science is discussed. The IQCC Forum gives the opportunity for PhD and postdoc members of the IQCC to present their work to a select group of critical researchers, enhancing intra-IQCC collaborations and promoting knowledge exchange within the institute.

The journal Advanced Synthesis & Catalysis features on its front cover the recently published paper “Aromatic C?H Hydroxylation Reactions with Hydrogen Peroxide Catalyzed by Bulky Manganese Complexes”. The oxidation of aromatic substrates to phenols with H2O2 as a benign oxidant remains an ongoing challenge in synthetic chemistry. Herein, we successfully achieved to catalyze aromatic C?H
This week, our former member of IQCC Carles Fuertes was awarded the annual recognition of the best PhD thesis in 2020 (Premi Extraordinari) from the University of Girona. Last year, he defended with success his PhD thesis on “Supramolecular nanocapsules as platforms for molecular recognition and reactivity in confined spaces”, supervised by Xavi Ribas. Now,
This week at the Supr@Stras conference organized by European Journal of Organic Chemistry, Chemistry Europe and Supramolecular Chemistry Group from SCF included a virtual poster session on Twitter (27th July). Ernest Ubasart, PhD student under the supervision of Dr. Xavi Ribas, presented a poster titled “A new supramolecular nanocapsule that enables the bis-regiofunctionalization of C60 and
Last week at the 2021 online edition of the International Symposium on Macrocyclic and Supramolecular Chemistry (ISMSC2021), Ricard López-Coll, PhD student under the supervision of Dr. Agustí Lledó, presented a poster titled “Exploring the Fluxional Behavior of Bioinspired Artifical Receptors with (a)MD Simulations”, and won the poster prize! The poster described the collaborative study between the groups
Dr. Sergio Posada-Pérez has recently become a new member of the Institute of Computational Chemistry and Catalysis (IQCC) with Juan de la Cierva – Formación and Marie Sklodowska-Curie IF fellowships, Dr. Posada-Pérez did his PhD at the University of Barcelona on heterogeneous catalysis of green chemistry reactions on molybdenum carbide based catalysts under the supervision of
